shall pay over to the town treasurer on the first Monday of

by the Commissioners he shall report in writing the general
state of the town, and at any time he may recommend any
matters as he may think will promote its interest. He shall

passed by the Commissioners, and every order, resolution or
ordinance shall be submitted to him by them immediately after
its passage, and within ten days after date of its passage he
shall act on the same, and if he shall approve it or fail to act
on it within ten days from the date of its passage, which fact
shall be endorsed by the clerk of the Commissioners, it shall
become operative and effectual; but if the Burgess shall veto
any order, resolution or ordinance, he shall notify the clerk of
the fact and transmit his reason in writing to the Commission-
ers at their next regular meeting, and such order, resolution or
ordinance shall not become operative and effectual unless
passed over his veto by the affirmative vote of all the members
of the board. If at any time the Burgess shall think any per-
son appointed to office by him shall be incompetent or unfaith-
ful to the duties of his office, he may file a written statement
of charges against him with the Commissioners, a copy of
which charges shall be sent to the person charged, and the
Board of Commissioners shall set a time to hear the same, and
if, after a full hearing, they shall find such officer incompetent
or unfaithful, the Burgess shall remove him from his office, and
with the consent and approval of the Commissioners shall ap-
point a proper person to fill his place.

temporarily borrow sums of money not amounting to more

treasury, or to provide for any emergency arising from the
necessity of maintaining the peace and good order of the town,
and preserving its safety, health and sanitary condition, and
may make due and proper arrangements and agreements for
the renewal and extension in whole or in part.
